So I have an AMD FX(tm)-8350 Eight-Core Processor with a MSI Motherboard (I'd have to go look for which one and for everything else but I'm not home) and normally I play certain games and on each one the temp varies for everything. So on a game called League of Legends my GPU Temp. normally hovers around 39 degrees Celsius. I have MSI AfterBurn and I keep my fan speed at 55%. Lately though my computer has been heating up to all the way up to 51 degrees Celsius and I'm not too sure whether I should be worried or not. The PC still runs just like it did but I don't know whether I should be worried. Thank you to anyone taking the time to answer! :)

Yeah I'd definitely look at getting an aftermarket cooler. Something like a Cryorig H5 or Noctua NH-U12S. The FX is not known to be the coolest CPU on the market, and running it for a long period of time on the stock fan is not the best option for an extended period of time. Having an aftermarket cooler and proper circulation in your case will reduce system temperatures dramatically.

I have an AMD FX(tm)-8350 Eight-Core Processor $.00 GHz, 16 GB of RAM, an AMD Radeon (tm) R9 380 Series 2GB. No it is not overclocked. I'm gonna paste the case I have DIYPC Zondda-B Black USB 3.0 ATX Mid Tower Gaming Computer Case with 3 x Blue Fans (1 x 120mm LED Fan x side, 1 x 120mm LED Fan x front, 1 x 120mm fan x rear). So I have 3 fans on the case. No I don't get an error message

What CPU cooler are you using? Is it stock (CPU cooler that came with the CPU)? Or is it 3rd party? If it's the stock cooler I'd suggest replacing it with a strong 3rd party cooler and then you would see reduced temperatures.

I'm just using the one that came with it, but it's just like out of no where the temps have been increasing from like 39 to (the highest so far) about 51.

That temperature is perfectly fine, if you're hitting high 70s then you might have reason for concern. A good place to start is to get all the dust out of your system, check your fans for any visible damage, and if that doesn't fix it I would ignore it unless the problem worsens.
